Keep Australia Beautiful Week
Keep Australia Beautiful Week
Keep Australia Beautiful Week is held in August. August is a time to raise awareness about the simple things we can all do in our daily lives to reduce our impact on the environment and encourage action to reduce litter.
We encourage all Western Australians to consider how they can participate in KAB Week and be role models for their families, friends and communities.
Easy ways to participate...
